Call the vet now if you see
From Tumble's red-flag guide. General guidance, not diagnosis.
- Swollen belly and retching with nothing coming upBloat (gastric dilatation-volvulus) is when the stomach fills with gas and can twist. It kills within hours without surgery. Large, deep-chested dogs are most at risk.
- Struggling to breatheNoisy, laboured breathing, blue gums or a dog who can't settle because of breathing is an emergency.
- Collapse or can't standA dog who suddenly collapses, falls over or cannot get up needs a vet now.
- Seizure longer than 5 minutes, or more than one in a dayOne short seizure that stops on its own needs a vet call. A long seizure, or several close together, is an emergency.
- Overheating: heavy panting, drooling, wobblyHeatstroke can kill within an hour. Hot cars, exercise on warm days and flat-faced breeds are the main risks.
- Ate xylitol, grapes, chocolate, rat poison or medicinesWith many poisons, treatment works best before signs show. Call now.
